Drag Me Away

So today is kind of a blah day, I don't feel bad but I don't feel great either. But I wanted to at least get my thoughts out and talk about whats been going on! First thank you for continuing to follow and comment on my mom and I's posts its nice to know that we are somewhat entertaining...lol! I added a new picture of my mom and me since we are the co-bloggers on here.

So my mom updated you on last week so I'm going to leave that alone, and just say that Im feeling much better after having all of the procedures done. It has been really good to be home this weekend too, and just be able to relax and not think about this upcoming week to much. Thank goodness it was also Round Barn Festival weekend too to help me not focus on the cancer. I was able to see a lot of old friends I haven't seen in a while and eat an elephant ear. Doesn't get much better than that.

On a side note thank you for all the song requests I was able to get my playlist done today so I have about 5 hrs of music and some podcasts to get me through 4 hrs of chemo on Thursday. (and to anyone who is in Indy and has some spare time I start chemo at 11am on Thursday and will be there til around 3pm if you want to come say hi and hang out). It will be happening at the IU Medical Group on 103rd and Meridian.

So Im going to end today saying that everyday I wake up I am a survivor and I wanted to also leave you with a song that has become my theme song and "go to" song when I'm starting to feel down. Everyone have a great week!

Peace, Love and Hope
Kaitlyn

Drag Me Away

Did you think I was leaving
My ticket was just one way
The angels I believed in
Were gonna carry me away
Did you think that I would simply
Give them my last breath
Well honey you've got me wrong
I'd never leave you for death
It's gonna take more than that to get rid of me
It's gonna take more than that to make me fade
They'll have to tie me up and drag me away
They'll have to shut my mouth and drag me away

There is no one I serve
I am not here to please
I will not be a hostage
To my own dis-ease

Oh Come on come on
Come on out and hold me
Out into the great sunlight
No power on earth can stop us
We'll both become one tonight

I have never been more sure of anything
I have never been more sure of what I am
They'll have to tie me up and drag me away
They'll have to shut my mouth and drag me away

There's no dark that can overcome a flame
There's no force that can drag me away
They could bring an army
Ten thousand men or more
Their mass weapons of destruction
Won't even up the score

Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on baby
They'll have to drag me away
Come on, come on, come on baby
They'll have to drag me away
They'll have to drag me away
They'll have to drag me away
They'll have to tie me up and drag me away
They'''ll have to shut my mouth and drag me away
There's no dark that can overcome a flame
There's no force that can drag me away

No force that can overcome a flame
There's no force that can drag me away

Good blog today. Glad you got to enjoy the weekend and see friends and family. That is what keeps you strong and fighting. Great picture of you and your mom also. You two share a bond that can only be described as phenominal. You thrive off each other and need each other. I just may surprise you and visit on Thurs. but then again I may wait my turn to take you for chemo. Have a good week. Keep telling yourself you are a survivor and have fun between the icky things in life. Love you bunches...Grams

Kaitlyn, Brian Romine just sent me the link and I am so thankful. You have been in my thoughts and prayers since Alison told me a week ago. God is good. All the time. We just don't know how good till we have been through the valleys. I know you will do great and that your faith will see you through. Thanks for the blog. God Bless

KT, my mother just sent me this link and I will be keeping tabs on you. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I know you to be a fighter, and I remember how badly you hate to lose. I have every confidence in this victory, and hope that God's glory will be seen in you by everyone you encounter.
love you,
